Fourleaf Case Studies

Starehe Future

Starehe comprises two very exceptional schools, the boys school founded in 1959 and the girls school founded in 2005. They both provide first-class education for bright individuals from impoverished backgrounds in Kenya free of charge.

Many of its past students go on to take leading roles in politics, business, law, academia, medicine and the media. The number of students in Starehe's care now stands at over 1,300. The school has an international reputation and has welcomed many esteemed visitors including President Mwai Kibaki, HRH the Princess Royal, Archbishop Desmond Tutu and the late Mrs Indira Gandhi.

Our work with Starehe Future

The Starehe Future Appeal is run by the UK-registered charity Starehe UK who are working towards raising a target £10 million in funding and donations. £2 million for essential capital projects such as updating buildings, installing power and water supplies and a further £8 million in contributions to the Griffin Endowment Fund, which aims to secure the provision of free school places in perpetuity.

While the website would naturally receive visitors who were interested in the Schools, it is the charitable donations from corporate entities that the website is focused towards. The website was specifically targeted to align with their other fund raising activities and strategy.

After the launch of the website an editable newsletter was required to keep existing contacts up to date with news and events and to also help promote the site to new users.

Fourleaf created a word template that the client could edit and update themselves, removing the need for ongoing costs. It was styled to be consistent with the design of the website to enforce their new branding.
